Welcome Yevgeni. Is there an internet cafe in Horsham or are you using a mobile phone to contact the forum? Well done mate.

I have been following the blog since inception. Personally, I agree with those who would praise its style and delivery, although I see how the staff do not want to see CH trashed online. What I fail to understand is why this creative little gem is not used by school as an insight into the problems/i...

I remember that the reason given was that he felt that he was hopelessly behind on his 'A' level studies and felt he could not pass. It was Easter time. Personally, I felt it was accepted that failure meant resits and that was the end of the world. We were on a coach on the way back from Pleneuf whe...

Hertford uniform was a world away from Horsham garb. I recall how 2 of my pals were the ones to model the new Horsham uniform for everyone at Hertford in the months before the merger, because they were the smallest girls in the school and the prototypes were tiny. Everyone looked at it in disbelief,...

Can I just say that this discussion has narrowed its focus down to money and parent 'status'. I know that with a good accountant, the income bar can be circumvented. Perhaps CH should find a more accurate way of looking at the child itself as an individual in a non-academic sense without external re...

I agree with Julian but perhaps a better question to pose would be - "Would you do it all again?"
I would, personally, because it was the best option for me at the time.

Plaque

Hi Julian,
I had the same thought as you and contacted that Reading seller on Ebay- though the money was a tad much. Well done for getting it though.

Monitors....

Hello all, I agree with NP and Hendrik. We used to joke that there was a very serious class system in place built on discrimination which did not encourage any form of respect, but conversely denied it. From an organisational view, I could not imagine something more destructive. From long and protra...
